Interestingly the vocal reminds me, a little of Noel69 - the very useful, friendly, helpful BIAB stalwart.
Good song & good sounds, though you've been lead astray with some of the Strine:
We've quite a few regional/state variants of Strine as well as of pronunciation.

I been down in the skip [skip bin = large garbage container - a dumpster I think in the US - Down in the dumps - depressed/unhappy].

Don't care what the gullah says [gallah = loud,squawking, pilfering pink, grey & white parrot - pron. Gah laa. Used to describe a fool, meat head, fool]

Don't want no pozzy job [pozzy? Maybe posh (related to wealth), posey (as in posing/showing off, being a poser)]

Been down in the dustbin snorkeling about [garbage bin, bin, rubbish bin, otto bin, otto (based on the brand of modern bins) - dustbin is more English - back from Victorian times when the "dust" was collected for recycling]

Been looking for spare change , (referred to as shrapnel as in small bits of metal)

Going down the gurgler [gurgler = drain] POIFECK

Bucketing down I go [bucketing = pouring rain] Ace

No problem-o - yep.

Don't want no tommyrot [rot is the shortened term used most often those BS, & BULL are more popular]

Going off nine to five [going off = losing your nut, exploding OR really doing well as in my footy team are goin'off - all related to fireworks...crackers...I let off a bunger - should seen it go off!]

You can knock me dead [knock me dead = impress] yep.

Fun song never-the-less.
Gun tune mate, a cracker, coulda bin on the tranny or Countdown.
Good song friend, a really good one that could've been on the transistor radio, (very late 60s that one), or on the ABC pop program of the 70s and 80s Countdown.
